Boznos Law Office

Boznos Law Office Law firm dedicated to labor law, estate planning, and being an employment attorney firm who understands the perspective of both employer and employee.

People grow up, go to an institution of higher learning, get a job and hopefully maintain that job (or career) until the time of retirement. Of course, during this time, there are bound to be some issues occurring on the job between management and employees. Some issues can be resolved rather quickly by the employee and the employer talking about the differences. Other issues require more serious

interaction, and may call for an Employment Attorney. An employment lawyer can resolve issues from either side of the issue. Boznos Law Office is an employment lawyer firm in Illinois who has represented clients involved in issues with agencies such as the Illinois Department of Labor, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and OSHA. We have also represented employers in issues that might otherwise be a costly litigation suit. Some of the specific areas in which a potential client can expect to be represented include wrongful termination, FMLA issues, various forms of employment discrimination, sexual harassment, whistle-blower issues, wage disputes and problems involving severance. While some of these issues may be a misunderstanding in fair employment practices, others may be a blatant intent to undermine the client. This could be the employee who is being undermined or the employer. This is where the hands of justice must come in and give the client the best representation possible in the matter. Boznos Law Office has been practicing employment law for over 30 years, bringing to the firm three decades of experience in corporate and Fortune 500 human resources. The law firm has also created employment handbooks that outline the expectations of employee and employer, in regards to following federal, state and local guidelines. Having this much experience in corporate human resources and law gives the law firm a unique opportunity to help clients, whether employees or employer, to understand how employment law works and how to best resolve issues that arise. The relationship between employers and employees can often get complex and in disarray. It is easy to see how the services of an attorney who understand the complexities of both sides would be valuable. The law firm also serves clients in business law and estate law. On the business law side, Boznos can help the client in the start up of the business, help the business owner decide how best to set up business, or how to buy or sell a business. A good business lawyer can advise the client throughout the various stages of the business, and help the business owner to be proactive in transactions. Whether the business need is for contract negotiating, trademark issues or forming of a stock corporation, the business law services of Boznos Law Office offer experience. In the matters of estate law, the law firm can ensure that the client has all of his or her affairs in order when the point of transition comes. Having one's affairs in order is a big save on the family members during that time, who are already grieving at the loss. If more information is desired about Boznos Law Office, contact us today.

Back to School and Pandemic Relief for Parents. Remember, “Families First” Paid Leave May be Available In the midst of the worst health crisis in 100 years, schools in Illinois have begun reopening for the new academic year. This can have a direct impact on working parents who now face continued challenges based on trying to find a work/life balance. The “new normal” as it relates to school reopening is anything but “normal”, forcing some working parents to make difficult choices between staying home and caring/educating their school age children on the one hand and needing to work at the same time.
